About

Hypermusic Prologue is the fruit of a unique partnership between science, music and the plastic arts. In the company of Lisa Randall, the artist Matthew Ritchie and the stage director Paul Desveaux, we explored the “historical” form of opera to create a new type of dramatic expression suited to the 21st century.
